🎥 Find the show and watch it on YouTube: GCN Show 632
🚴 New research just dropped that might give us some optimism on improving cycling for everyone...but can we actually do anything about it? We hear from one of the authors, who explains how the "loud majority" in local activism doesn’t always reflect what most people want. What role might this play in cycling? 👀
Plus, we've got scary news on car crash prevention systems, an epic comeback story, the end of Netflix's "Unchained", and a roundup of the most hipster gravel and ultra races from last week!
